Prefect Community

<@ULVA73B9P> How do I fix this error: "Unable to read the specified config file. Reason: mapping values are not allowed here
  in "prefect.yaml", line 21, column 15. Skipping.", it happens after I run prefect deploy?
The line is "- name: test-name":
```deployments:
  - name: test-name
      entrypoint: flows/test.py:test ```

Your YAML configuration error is due to incorrect indentation. YAML is sensitive to spaces, and the error message suggests that there's a problem with how your configuration is structured. Here's a corrected version of your `prefect.yaml`:

```yaml
deployments:
  - name: test-name
    entrypoint: flows/test.py:test
```

Make sure that the `entrypoint` line is correctly aligned under `name`. YAML requires consistent indentation, and mixing spaces and tabs can lead to such errors.

For more details on configuring Prefect deployments, you can refer to the <https://docs-3.prefect.io/v3/deploy/infrastructure-concepts/prefect-yaml|Prefect YAML documentation>.

If you encounter further issues, you might want to run `prefect init` to see if Prefect provides any additional configuration guidance based on your project's structure.
